FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to an atomizer including an anti-tilt device and music play function.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A conventional facial treatment device such as a facial steamer 70 is shown in FIG. 10 and generally includes a heater 71 and a tank 72 is installed on the heater 71, a cover 73 is mounted on the tank 72. The tank 72 has water received therein which is heated by the heater 71 to generate steam which goes out from an outlet 731 defined in the cover 73. The temperature of the steam expands the pores to easily remove the accumulated cosmetic material and grease therefrom so as to prevent acnes from developing and to obtain a clean facial condition. Some users put some medicine or drops of essential oil, the medicine or the essential oil is mixed with the steam to be applied on the user's face to reach desired purposes. However, the facial steamers are light and might fall down by any unintentional impact. Besides, it takes a period of time to steam the face and this will be a boring period of time for some users so that some users without patience just quit from using the facial steamers.

A middle part 30 includes a groove 32 defined in an underside thereof so that the peripheral wall 11 is engaged with the groove 32 to connect the middle part 30 to the base 10. A chamber 31 is defined in the middle part 30 so as to receive water or desired liquid therein. For safety consideration, the circuit board 20 includes a level detection device 23 which detects the level of liquid received in the chamber 31 such that when the level of the water is below a desired position, the circuit is cut off. The middle part 30 includes a hollow tubular portion 35 which is mounted on the fan on the circuit board and encloses the fan. The hollow tubular portion 35 includes an open top 351 so that the air flow goes out from the open top 351. The middle part 30 includes a shoulder portion 33 extending inward from an inner periphery thereof and a plurality of notches 34 are defined in an upright wall above the shoulder portion 33.

A top part 40 is rested on the shoulder portion 33 and includes a plurality of protrusions 42 which are engaged with the notches 34 by rotating the top part 40 an angle as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B. The top part 40 includes a guide tube 41 which includes an outlet 412. The guide tube 41 of the middle part 30 includes a plurality of apertures 411 defined through a wall thereof.
